Boundary Labyrinth and the Foreign Magician
264 Sealed Witch
It seems that the Sage's academic league is also the place of life for the sorcerers to whom it belongs. For the face of the seven houses led by the elders, home is the same, so Valentina brought me tea.
"Let me talk to your mother."
"... um"
Old Siegmund snorts.
"Where did you talk from? When we talk about Patricia, we really talk about her."
When I snort at that word, I preface it with "then" and then old Siegmund continues.
"The children of the seven wise men who served the magic kingdom of Belliondola, it is said, Blood has faded since Silvatria was founded. Still, I'm pretty sure my ancestors had Seven Wise Men."
Is that why the elders are seven houses for seven? They may also be the group of magicians who sealed the Alliance of Demons in the Labyrinth of Termwilds.
"But... Later, when Bellion Dora perished, the battle against the devil killed our Lord and did not inherit some precious magic. The bloodline stayed, but there was a problem with technology."
says one of the elders.
"... metastatic magic, magic circulation, etc?
Old Siegmund smiles bitterly at my words.
"Hmm. Theodore or. Was your lord in Verdogal? He said that he knew the sealed witch, and seemed familiar with the inside of him..."
"That's what His Majesty Eberberbert said about the sealed witch when he found out about my birth. As for metastatic magic... the demon I defeated before said it was lost magic"
A magician who was leaning on a teacup swallows at the words.
"Did you defeat the Demon Man?
"Verdogal is now engaged under water with a group of demons. I'm talking about the labyrinth and the veryondola."
"What the hell is your Lord doing... I'd like to hear about it, but the story goes out of line. Let's talk about us first. As for the magic of metastasis, although the Lord lost his life, it was not completely lost."
"I see. He said he was secretly telling the story."
Does that mean your mother took over? No, but......
"It's a little different that we were talking about metastatic magic. They found the research material for the user, and they were trying to bring it back to life by analyzing and researching it. I didn't know if the user would show up due to the relationship between the magical qualities and the difficulty of acquiring them... Non Laqi tried to stand back to the ancient wise men to advance the conversation with each other. Anyway, when it came to fruition, I believed so."
"And I thought maybe my mother could be a user?
"Right. And Patricia responded to that. Then the user's research materials were from the stage prior to the completion of the procedure." Patricia was able to make resuscitated metastatic magic more efficient, and she was trying to improve the technique and study it. "
So... even after I left Silvatria, my mother continued her research. Would it mean that the Sage's academic league was not only aiming for the revival of the users of the magic cycle, but also for the reconstruction of other techniques?
"Nevertheless... it's not hard to imagine what would happen if metastatic magic were in the hands of demons, is it? Therefore, a powerful weapon must never be put into the hands of a demon, positioning the technique as a secret technique, and keeping it secret, but still telling the story."
What if the metamorphosis magic is in the hands of the demon...? Barrier-shaped junctions no longer make sense, indeed.
Is that why it's secrecy? I don't know what they're dealing with, but they don't reveal secrets. It was not a matter of concern that the ambitious powerful were linked to the devil, etc.
power and long life beyond people's knowledge. Bringing it closer to the demon... would be fascinating for a man who seeks domination or immortality.
"What's a sealed witch?
"This is a custom that has been going on since Bellion Dora... but the ritual procedure remains unclear."
"Was there a battle with the demons or a disturbance like that caused by Zadias that was lost in the past..."
"There's a reason it's been too long... but don't be."
Old Siegmund says it looks slightly worse to me.
Yeah. Even Verdogal has had that happen in the past. So is Claudia tied to the labyrinth, and so has King Verdogal, several generations ago, who has labyrinthed the pit.
Claudia had eyes that looked a little farther. Maybe he remembers the old days.
"Whatever, the daughter with the most witchcraft talent is chosen over the Nong La Qi family to strike by name. They say you will be a witch who protects all sides after the ritual... Sealing means... the royal soul-quenching old demon. Making... I don't know why they're so shallow."
"As for the sealed witch, we have to finish the election and the ritual early. By the next full moon night…"
"For generations, the Wilcloud lady was often a witch.... Patricia was a truly talented magician"
When one said so, the elders nodded... and the story of their mother continued with a relaxed air.
"... but with the exception of the magical genius, she was a gentle, sober daughter."
"Right. I wondered what strange magic tricks you make sometimes."
"That was a reference to the crystal town of Non's study. I really liked it."
"Oh...... Um, what's that?
"Uhm."
This is, well, I guess I'm talking about my regular mother.
...... yeah. Probably something similar to the wand Auria had. I know the origins are from here, but let's not go deep.
"So, I told you I was curious a long time ago."
"Oh. Is this about defeating the demon man?
"Mm-hmm. I'd like to hear your lord's story, including that. I don't know why."
"Okay."
Well... where did you talk from? I have the harder part of talking from one to ten. I don't want to explain the memories of my past life because I don't know what caused them.
That said, we plan to talk about it to some extent. Do you want to explain the current situation first?
"Let's talk about this first. I work in the Kingdom of Verdogal in a labyrinth about the position of His Majesty Melvin, the ambassador of the other world.... I will definitely just tell them that I'm going back to Verdogal, not to mention future interactions, as I have those in-laws and things to do"
When I say first that the magic circulation can be used without telling this story, it's going to be tricky. Let's just be clear about the stance first. I'm showing King Eberberberbert a magical circle, and it doesn't make sense to lay low here.
"... Hmm. If the Lord is free, he wants you to stay with the Wilcloud family. But then I struggled, and I was helped. I want you to do what you want."
Old Siegmund says.
"Thank you. So... tell me about when you headed to Termwilds. I've already solved it, but there's a time when I was a little unfriendly with my stepmother and his son. So… I learned magic on my own and pressed my father to negotiate on the grounds that I could use magic without chanting."
Well, let's not touch on the contents of self-study.
"No chanting. Certainly, there are times when immature magicians leave their emotions to outburst their magic..."
Valentina nods.
"Right. Let me use that as a reason. I said I wanted to go to Peresford school because I wanted to learn more magic, and I headed to Termwilds."
We met Ashley on the road, we had a Cardiff kidnapping and we got to know Sheila... there was a lot going on. Let's go over everything from kidnapping to fighting Lynette there in detail.
"- So the first official constitution broke into Cardiff's mansion, and the demon man who was infiltrated was seared out. Is this the first battle against demons?"
"Not the first?
"No...... Since then, there have been several battles with demon groups."
"Why the Lord? No, considering Patricia, I don't know how she feels..."
Old Siegmund frowns.
"Because you can fight demons. Because you can use magic circulation."
"... what!?
After a few moments, almost all of the facades of the academic league, who were on the spot below the elders, turned their eyes round and lowered their hips.
"Is that true?
"Yes, let me try it"
Circulating and elevating the magic, the elders' faces boil to joy.
"Oh...! This is...!
"Have we reached our goal too...!
"... and used this circulation, new flying techniques, the blessings of the Moon Goddess, and the magic left by my mother to defeat everyone and the Demon Man several times"
"... I don't know where to go in and ask as soon as possible"
Old Siegmund smiles bitterly but does his hand around his forehead.
"I didn't expect the magic circulation to come back out of our hands. It's ironic."
"Mr. Theodore. Are you... are you going back to Verdogal?
"As I said earlier. Because I have a brother-in-law for everyone and a job I started myself. As for the magic circulation... well, there may be something we can do to help."
"... well. Well, I guess so."
One of the elders showed up in my response as if he had lost his temper.
"But not to mention AC, is that what you're talking about? We don't know what's going on with you, Theodore, or Verdogal. I hope we don't panic and move on to convince everyone."
Siegmund nodded as Valentina told the elders.
"The problem is piling up because Nan and the others have been asleep so far... I can't say more impotent to that oblivion than to let Patricia take on a spicy role. Well, I guess so. The demons who show up in Verdogal seem to have a lot to do with Veryondola, and it might be a good idea to hang with His Majesty to offer technical cooperation to Theodore and Verdogal."
"I see."
"That's for sure"
The elders are nodding as convinced.
Technical cooperation? Well, that's not exactly secret, I guess it's classified as something you can bring up, but will airships, how to create that golem, etc. also be included in the technology of the Sage's Academic Union?
